We are experiencing an abundance of Internet-of-Things (IoT) middleware solutions that provide connectivity for sensors and actuators to the Internet. To gain a widespread adoption, these middleware solutions, referred to as platforms, have to meet the expectations of different players in the IoT ecosystem, including device providers, application developers, and end-users, among others. In this article, we evaluate a representative sample of these platforms, both proprietary and open-source, on the basis of their ability to meet the expectations of different IoT users. The evaluation is thus more focused on how ready and usable these platforms are for IoT ecosystem players, rather than on the peculiarities of the underlying technological layers. The evaluation is carried out as a gap analysis of the current IoT landscape with respect to (i) the support for heterogeneous sensing and actuating technologies, (ii) the data ownership and its implications for security and privacy, (iii) data processing and data sharing capabilities, (iv) the support offered to application developers, (v) the completeness of an IoT ecosystem, and (vi) the availability of dedicated IoT marketplaces. The gap analysis aims to highlight the deficiencies of today's solutions to improve their integration to tomorrow's ecosystems. In order to strengthen the finding of our analysis, we conducted a survey among the partners of the Finnish IoT program, counting over 350 experts, to evaluate the most critical issues for the development of future IoT platforms. Based on the results of our analysis and our survey, we conclude this article with a list of recommendations for extending these IoT platforms in order to fill in the gaps.
Economic viability and Future Impact of Internet of Things in India: An Inevitable wave
物联网（Internet of Things，有时也称为Internet of objects）可以被描述为一个环境，在这个环境中，任何物理事物或对象都是相似的。本文研究了互联网使用的演变，并对互联网将超越个人通信或知识界面的影响领域进行了分类，但它将为我们周围的众多小工具和系统提供通信和知识库支持。
The Internet of Things (IoT) is affecting national innovation ecosystems and the approach of organizations to innovation and how they create and capture value in everyday business activities. The Internet of Things (IoT), is disruptive, and it will change the manner in which human resources are developed and managed, calling for a new and adaptive human resource development approach. The Classical Internet communication form is human-human. The prospect of IoT is that every object will have a unique way of identification and can be addressed so that every object can be connected. The communica…
The Internet of Things (IoT) is seen as a novel technical paradigm aimed at enabling connectivity between billions of interconnected devices all around the world. This IoT is being served in various domains, such as smart healthcare, traffic surveillance, smart homes, smart cities, and various industries. IoT's main functionality includes sensing the surrounding environment, collecting data from the surrounding, and transmitting those data to the remote data centers or the cloud. This sharing of vast volumes of data between billions of IoT devices generates a large energy demand and increases …
The Internet of Things, or IoT, refers to the billions of physical objects around the planet that are now connected to the Internet, many of which store and exchange the data without human interaction. In recent years the Internet of Things (IoT) has incredibly become a groundbreaking technical innovation that has contributed to massive impact in the ways where all the information is handled incorporate companies, computer devices, and even kitchen equipment and appliances, are designed and made. The main focus of this chapter is to systematically review the security and privacy of the Interne…
The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a frequent target of attacks -- compromising both patient data and healthcare infra-structure. While privacy-enhanced technologies and services (PETS) are developed to mitigate traditional privacy concerns, they cannot be applied without identifying specific threat models. Therefore, our position is that the new threat land-scape created by the relatively new and underexplored IoMT domain must be studied. We briefly discuss specific privacy threats and threat actors in IoMT. Furthermore, we argue that the privacy policy gap needs to be identified for th…
Design for X (DfX) in the Internet of Things (IoT)
设计质量是现代质量管理理念的基石。Design for X（DfX）技术提供了指导方针、逻辑和度量标准，以确保设计中存在特定的质量属性。尽管已经发表了数百篇关于DfX方法的论文，但很少有研究人员系统地探索在特定问题背景下应用多个DfX。随着物联网（IoT）的发展，人、计算机和物体之间的界限将变得不那么明显，这强调了对更全面设计的需求。使用混合方法，本文研究了DfX在新兴物联网生态系统中的效用。我们确定了适用于物联网相关设计的DfX，并找到了需要进一步研究和开发的差距。本研究的结果可用于帮助设计人员和质量管理人员选择或开发适当的DfX，用于设计物联网（IoT）组件，支持可操作的质量和客户满意度策略。
The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) are increasing the accuracy, reliability, and the production capability of electronic devices by playing a very important part in the industry of healthcare. The available medical resources and services related to healthcare are working to get an interconnection with each other by the digital healthcare system by the contribution of the researchers. Sensors, wearable devices, medical devices, and clinical devices are all connected to form an ecosystem of the Internet of Medical Things. The different applications of healthcare are enabled by the Internet of…
A service mining framework is proposed that enables discovering interesting relationships in Internet of Things services bottom-up. The service relationships are modeled based on spatial-temporal aspects, environment, people, and operation. An ontology-based service model is proposed to describe services. We present a set of metrics to evaluate the interestingness of discovered service relationships. Analytical and simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed evaluation measures.
As the population grows, the need for a quality level of medical services grows correspondingly, so does the demand for information technology in medicine. The concept of "Smart Healthcare" offers many approaches aimed at solving the acute problems faced by modern healthcare. In this paper, we review the main problems of modern healthcare, analyze existing approaches and technologies in the areas of digital twins, the Internet of Things and mobile medicine, determine their effectiveness in solving the set problems, consider the technologies that are used to monitor and treat patients and propo…
Nowadays, the Internet of Things (IoT) concept is gaining more and more notoriety bringing the number of connected devices to reach the order of billion units. Its smart technology is influencing the research and developments of advanced solutions in many areas. This paper focuses on the merger between the IoT and robotics named the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT). Allowing robotic systems to communicate over the internet at a minimal cost is an important technological opportunity. Robots can use the cloud to improve the overall performance and for offloading demanding tasks. Since communica…
We are experiencing an unprecedented healthcare crisis caused by newly-discovered corona-virus disease (COVID-19). The outbreaks of COVID-19 reveal the frailties of existing healthcare systems. Therefore, the digital transformation of healthcare systems becomes an inevitable trend. During this process, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) plays a crucial role while intrinsic vulnerabilities of security and privacy deter the wide adoption of IoMT. In this article, we present a blockchain-enabled IoMT to address the security and privacy concerns of IoMT systems. We also discuss the solutions br…
The Internet of Things(IoT) will revolutionize the Future Internet through ubiquitous sensing. One of the challenges of having the hundreds of billions of devices that are estimated to be deployed would be rise of an enormous amount of data, along with the devices ability to manage. This paper presents an approach as a controller solution and designed specifically for autonomous management, connectivity and data interoperability in an IoT gateway. The approach supports distributed IoT nodes with both management and data interoperability with other cloud-based solutions. The concept further all…
